Cars

Cars are a very important part of American life. For some people it´s just a status and for others it´s a necessity. Many people spend 4 to 5 hours a day in a car. Some use this time to eat, to read the newspaper or a book. Many Americans spend a lot of money every month on their cars. In Los Angeles, for example, where the population is approximately 8 million, there are more than 6 million cars. America today has a drive-thru at the bank, at the cleaners, for a hamburger, and to develop photos. It’s hard to imagine how Americans would live without a car.

a. Why are cars important for Americans?

b. What do they do in their cars?

c. What kind of drive-thru do they have?

d. Do you have a car?

e. Is a car important in your life? Why?
